The US Office: 10 Worst Episodes
5. Here Comes Treble - Season 9 Episode 5
From Michael falling into a koi pond to Dwight's Sarah Kerrigan costume from Starcraft, the US Office has some incredibly memorable Halloween episodes. In this one, the staff once again hilariously impress with their costumes but the mood is soured not only by Andy's invitation of his acapella group - Here Comes Treble, but by Jim and Pam's ongoing argument about Jim's new business venture.
What sucks: The whole "Pam doesn't support Jim's dreams" narrative is a huge thorn in the side of season 9 making not only Pam seem like a discouraging wife but makes Jim seem clueless and selfish as he tries to make his Athlead dream a reality. This riff, which continues throughout season 9, starts off in this episode when Jim invests $10,000 dollars into the business without first consulting Pam.
In addition, it feels a little irresponsible that in the episode Nellie is gossiped about and shamed for taking anti-anxiety medication and it isn't talked about in any greater depth, offering little compassion for her character and her problems.
What doesn't suck: Dwight's pumpkin head costume and Creed's "That's what she said" moment.
